Preview 4 release - MSBuild based tools
RC 4 release - MSBuild based tools
---------------------------------------
As was outlined in the ["Changes to project.json" blog post](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dotnet/2016/05/23/changes-to-project-json/), we have started work to move away from project.json to csproj and MSBuild. All the new `latest` releases from this repo (from `rel/1.0.0` branch) are MSBuild-enabled tools.
The current official release of the csproj-enabled CLI tools is **CLI Preview 4**.
The current official release of the csproj-enabled CLI tools is **CLI RC 4**.
There are a couple of things to keep in mind:
* Preview 4 CLI bits are still **in development** so some rough edges are to be expected.
* Preview 4 bits **do not support** project.json so you will have to either keep Preview 2 tools around or migrate your project or add a global.json file to your project to target preview2. You can find more information on this using the [project.json to csproj instructions](https://github.com/dotnet/cli/blob/rel/1.0.0/Documentation/ProjectJsonToCSProj.md).
* Preview 4 refers to the **CLI tools only** and does not cover Visual Studio, VS Code or Visual Studio for Mac.
* RC 4 CLI bits are still **in development** so some rough edges are to be expected.

* We welcome any and all issues that relate to MSBuild-based tools, so feel free to try them out and leave comments and file any bugs/problems.
